They've changed the program format slightly from previous years with the
evening presentations ending early enough you can get to the overlooks
to photograph sunset.

Saturday night, as soon as the presentation ended, I went down to the
overlook just below the entrance. When I got there, a woman made a
shushing sign (finger over lips) and then a "come over here" wave.

I went over to see what she wanted; she pointed down over the wall and
whispered "Do you see them?"

A few seconds later I did - two young black bears (or older cubs).
Didn't have time to go back over to the car to grab my camera, but I did
actually SEE wild bears at Grandfather mountain.

Nothing came sniffing around the campsite in the middle of the night,
but there were two hoot owls late Friday night. Couldn't see them, but I
could hear them calling - one over near the campground entrance and one
down the path in the direction of the guest cabin.

As far as wild animal photography goes, I managed to get a couple of
fuzzy shots of a chipmunk.

It was a fun weekend. I'll do it again as many times as I'm able to.

Re: geso just a aimless photowalk

[Christine Aguila]

Thanks, Paul!  I like 6 as well but for nostalgic reasons.  I don’t know if you 
remember when I shot the construction site at work for a couple of years.  That 
project was such an important moment in developing my skills—and, more 
importantly, I immediately came to love photographing the subject.  I’d love to 
do another construction photo essay, but it’s tough to do without the onsite 
access I was able to secure with that shoot.

I’ve never done a book of the construction photos, but this summer I hope to do 
a photo book for myself—it’s on the list of summer projects, which is growing 
by the minute—and looking less likely to fully complete due to the list’s long 
length, and the summer’s short length  :-).

Cheers, Christine

Re: geso just a aimless photowalk

Big thanks, Ann!  I think the fountain is called Millennium Monument.  Let me 
double check that.  I think it might be new—if not, maybe they renamed it with 
the building of Millennium Park.

Re: geso just a aimless photowalk

[Christine Aguila]

Boy all your points are spot on—and energizing!

—especially, your point about holding off a bit . . . at a distance . . . et 
al.  It was almost as if I could see myself do exactly that as I was having my 
casual photo walk.

You know that expression “do you feel me?”  Well, it was as if my camera asked 
my eye, "do you feel me?”

—and my eye responded, “not quite yet.”  :-)

The subject of 10 came into view quickly and startled me a bit so I reacted too 
quickly, yet with uncertainty, and lately I’ve been shy to photograph people, 
though I can’t explain why.  I have some theories, but I haven’t quite voted on 
any of them just yet :-).  Looking at the shot later, I was quite surprised it 
was in focus.

I’m hungry to do some nice black and white photography this summer.  I really 
want to step up my game and bring stronger emotion to my photographs.


Thanks, Godfrey!  I shall most definitely keep going.

Cheers, Christine

Re: Two Questions - more or less

[Zos Xavius]

It, like 8, performs faster than 7. I've been using it since they
first launched the final build (which has been updated several times
now) and the few showstoppers I had were all fixed and were all
certainly attributed to poor initial driver support. It seems to swap
a bit harder on my laptop which only has 8gb of ram. Also lightroom
seems to now be using a lot more RAM, so I have that working against
me as well. One thing you will notice is that it definitely uses RAM a
lot more actively as cache. It will even compress pages instead of
swapping them out immediately. This is why Win10 has a compressed
memory system task now. It seems to work fairly well, but I've had
some high ram situations make my computer slow to a complete crawl as
it swapped heavily. I'm guessing that moving to an SSD would vastly
improve performance for me, but then so would adding more RAM too.

I see no reason to run windows 7 anymore personally. Even on older
hardware Windows 10 seems to run faster in general. Startup time on my
laptop is abysmal. I will say that. It wasn't really great with
windows 7 either. Vanilla windows 10 loads right up though, but once
you start adding a lot of startup programs be prepared to wait a
little bit. Its nothing really new for me and my solution is to just
never reboot. Easy.

Re: Two Questions - more or less

[Philip Northeast]

It is on two of my computers and works fine. Haven't had a crash or any 
real problems.


Usually, I run Photoshop and Lightroom  on my iMac , with a fusion 
drive, this is part SSD.



My W10 notebook has an SSD drive and it W10 loads very quickly.

Using an SSD is probably the biggest speed boost at the  moment.

Yup - Win 10 Pro on a seven year old box - core 2 quad processor and 8 
gig ram.  Not a speed demon on this box but runs LR, PSElements and a 
plethora of other graphics programs OK - just have to be a little 
patient.  Even a move to an I3 processor would speed it up a bunch.


The GUI is a little different but you can do some customization in the 
layout and you can set it up so your shortcuts are on the desktop like 
the old Windows if that's your preference.

Terrific gallery!
For me, the "hands down" winner was Pat Temmerman's "Antwerp Hands" but I
also really like Christine's "Hands and Worms" and Henk Terhell's "Busy

Re: Pentax Autofocus strengths

Oh, crispy mics!
Who enjoys soft and mushy ones?
And who needs sharp pimples on their face? Those are better when blurred!
:)
Besides, mics are not moving, so, you are less likely to get the motion 
blur... Something must be sharp in the photos. :-D

I'm sure that was appreciated



I saw a bear in the wild for the first time at GFM. It rained Saturday
night.




They've changed the program format slightly from previous years with the
evening presentations ending early enough you can get to the overlooks
to photograph sunset.

Saturday night, as soon as the presentation ended, I went down to the
overlook just below the entrance. When I got there, a woman made a
shushing sign (finger over lips) and then a "come over here" wave.



Overlook just below the entrance to the CAMPING/Picnic area.



I went over to see what she wanted; she pointed down over the wall and
whispered "Do you see them?"

A few seconds later I did - two young black bears (or older cubs).
Didn't have time to go back over to the car to grab my camera, but I did
actually SEE wild bears at Grandfather mountain.

Nothing came sniffing around the campsite in the middle of the night,
but there were two hoot owls late Friday night. Couldn't see them, but I
could hear them calling - one over near the campground entrance and one
down the path in the direction of the guest cabin.

As far as wild animal photography goes, I managed to get a couple of
fuzzy shots of a chipmunk.

It was a fun weekend. I'll do it again as many times as I'm able to.

Stephen Fletcher is the Archivist at the UNC Wilson Library. His talk
was about digitizing the photography collections concentrating on
Western North Carolina photographers & especially the Hugh Morton
Collection.

http://blogs.lib.unc.edu/morton/index.php/2016/06/a-climb-to-the-bridge/

He also showed a few of his own photos & he's the one who said he bought
a K-1 just before coming to the GFM Nature Photography Weekend.

PS: My family visited Grandfather Mountain more than once while I was a
child, and seeing the photos in that blog entry, I remember those dirt
roads going up to the top.

Cute shot of the fawn. The katydid nymph on the flower is also realy 
nice, but the fawn steals the show.

The Statue of Liberty is going to fly! I hope someone gets a shot of that. It

Pentax Autofocus strengths

[Larry Colen]

After another evening of photographing musician friends I have a deeper 
appreciation of the Pentax autofocus to always focus perfectly on the 
microphone. Even when I accidentally set the autofocus point on a 
portion of the musicians face well away from the microphone my camera is 
able to detect the error of my ways and get the mesh over the mic in 
perfect crystal clear focus.

Direct quote from the email sent to me.

"The Statue of Liberty flyover will be tonight between 2:00AM and 3:00AM UTC!"

My mistake - it should be flightradar24.com  Gives you repeated 20/30 minute
slots for free.  You'll see it when it fires up - it has a very distinctive
outline.

It's ~40miles in a straight line  from Allentown but I suspect that SI2 would
only average maybe 40mph over the ground for such a short flight.  I've seen it
get down to low single figures for substantial periods of time, so even loger is
distinctly possible.

Mike,

Thank you for the reminder!

Let me add/correct some information. I suspect, it is not UTC, but EDT.

The website currently says: "The solar airplane will enter the bay over 
the Verrazano Bridge at an altitude of 1500ft from 2:00AM to 3:00 AM EDT."
I am not sure how long it would take Si2 from the Statue of Liberty to 
Verrazano Bridge, - but I'd assume it wouldn't be 4 hours.

Oh, and yes, at the top, it says:
"Solar Impulse 2 will fly over the Statue of Liberty on June 7th at 2:00AM 
EDT "



Also, flightradar.com  is not a functioning website.
I tried flightaware.com and flightradar24.com - they are not showing any 
information for Solar Impulse (call sign: HB-SIB), so, I am confused:

In K1 news, I asked at the local(ish) emporium if they had any more stock in

The issue I have here is that I've now got an 80s song stuck to my

Other than this, that groove doesn't seem to have taken long to get 
into. I particularly like the one with the backs and the C**on.

I saw a bear in the wild for the first time at GFM. It rained Saturday
night.




They've changed the program format slightly from previous years with the
evening presentations ending early enough you can get to the overlooks
to photograph sunset.

Saturday night, as soon as the presentation ended, I went down to the
overlook just below the entrance. When I got there, a woman made a
shushing sign (finger over lips) and then a "come over here" wave.

I went over to see what she wanted; she pointed down over the wall and
whispered "Do you see them?"

A few seconds later I did - two young black bears (or older cubs).
Didn't have time to go back over to the car to grab my camera, but I did
actually SEE wild bears at Grandfather mountain.

Nothing came sniffing around the campsite in the middle of the night,
but there were two hoot owls late Friday night. Couldn't see them, but I
could hear them calling - one over near the campground entrance and one
down the path in the direction of the guest cabin.

As far as wild animal photography goes, I managed to get a couple of
fuzzy shots of a chipmunk.

It was a fun weekend. I'll do it again as many times as I'm able to.

Stephen Fletcher is the Archivist at the UNC Wilson Library. His talk
was about digitizing the photography collections concentrating on
Western North Carolina photographers & especially the Hugh Morton
Collection.

http://blogs.lib.unc.edu/morton/index.php/2016/06/a-climb-to-the-bridge/

He also showed a few of his own photos & he's the one who said he bought
a K-1 just before coming to the GFM Nature Photography Weekend.

PS: My family visited Grandfather Mountain more than once while I was a
child, and seeing the photos in that blog entry, I remember those dirt
roads going up to the top.

Re: geso just a aimless photowalk

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

I don't think you have anything to worry about, Christine. They all look pretty 
groovy to me. :-)

A nice set from a casual walk. Looking at them as a group, the sense of you 
feeling out your eye comes through: you're holding what you see off a bit, at a 
slight distance, a little tentative and objective. And yet, the attraction to 
shape, to geometry, to lighting comes through clearly. 

In number five I see you become fully engaged in the scene, ten a little less 
so. 

Step in closer. Open your arms and embrace the vision. Keep on going! 

G

(You've inspired me. I just pulled out the M-P, fitted the 35mm lens, and set 
it to my usual B config.. That's my camera to carry today, no bag. :-)

Last Thursday, Nicole and I were teaching at Thunderhill (on the 5
mile track). I was taking my student for a ride in the second
session. On the back straight I heard a "whump" noise and my
windshield was suddenly covered with water. That was a fairly easy
problem to diagnose.


Out of curiosity, do you guys use anti-freeze?


That depends.  In my street car, on open track days, yes I do use 
anti-freeze.  One problem with anti-freeze is that not only can it be 
more slippery than oil when on the track, but it is harder to see. Some 
organizations ban its use.


It has the advantage of raising the boiling point of water, but the 
disadvantage of reducing the heat capacity. Sometimes in race cars, I've 
used a product by redline called water-wetter.
